WOW! Life has gotten so crazy for us lately that blogging has taken a backseat. That being said, I had to quickly share an experience we had this week. Dylan was very excited about the voting process-to the point of nagging his parents. Owen and I took Dylan with us to early voting so that he could see what it was all about. He was very upset when he learned that he was too young to actually vote! (They did let me take him with me while I voted and he actually cast my vote by pushing the button at the end which made him a little happier.) I decided that this was a wonderful time to explain what a blessing it is for us to live in a democracy and what that means for every American. I actually got choked up while I was explaining this to him and was surprised at just how tender and strong my feelings were about it. Dylan said "So it's pretty important?" Yeah baby, it is.
